MUSICAL THEATRE
WHAT IS MUSICAL THEATRE
Musical Theatre tells a story through more than one discipline, it blends music, acting and dance.
It is important to learn the correct techniques for each.
This includes how to:
Breathe and sing
Acting techniques, improvisation
Diction, pronunciation
How to add dance
Once you have learnt these components, you piece them together to create a performance that includes, singing, dancing, and acting.
From Shakespeare to Dr Suess for acting to Stephen Sondheim, Andrew Lloyd Webber, Disney to more current musicals like Hamilton and in the heights for singing.

WHY LEARN MUSICAL THEATRE?
Performing arts colleges train students in these specialist areas and some dancers find it hard arriving at college without having their basic training.
Performers will most likely be asked to sing at an audition for their college or for a professional job.
They will have to do this also at auditions for West end shows, Broadway, Holiday camps and cruise ships.
To train the voice is as important as the dance aspect.
